Mike Wofford Trio with Curtis Taylor
950 Hotel Circle North, San Diego, 92108
Cost: Free
Mike Wofford, from Texas, grew up in San Diego. His is an astonishing background that includes stints with the Jackson Five, John Lennon, Donna Summer, and more. But his gig for the past many years has been straight-ahead jazz, and as one of the leading forces of that music on the West Coast, he’s recorded or been staged with the best. Now approaching 80, Wofford was outed as one of this town’s best kept secrets when the San Diego Music Awards laid a Lifetime Achievement Award on him in 2012. Bassist Dean Hulett and drummer Richard Sellers will accompany trumpeter Curtis Taylor and Wofford in this performance.
